4. interesting... so does the dali lama
I often wonder if Christ had an alternative to "turn the other cheek". I would still consider the Dali Lama a pacifist. The Dali Lama statement "When one is witness to cruelity, one has a duty to stop it. One should never be a bully, or a victim. But one has a special duty to never be a passive witness to criminal behavior."

5. I thought he was more of a "Duty of the Prince" sort.
Seem the "Gita" was more of a SUCK IT UP AND DO WHAT YOU GOTTA sort of text.

Of course being from the west, my interpretation is "gundecked" through MY psyche. I think you've got the "edge" here.
